Some composers talk about what they do. Others talk about how they think.

In this episode of The Composer’s Life, I sit down with film and television composer Sheldon Mirowitz to explore his perspective on creativity, composing, and the way ideas take shape over time.

Our conversation moves beyond process into something more reflective — looking at how composers develop their thinking, how creativity can be approached deliberately, and what it means to build a long-term relationship with your own work.

This is Part 1 of a conversation that focuses less on steps and more on perspective — the kind that comes from years of composing, teaching, and working across film and media.
